Hi, I have purchased a corribee Mk 1. long keel. the plaque says made by "Newbridge of Wolverhampton" which makes her a very early GRP model(pre 1969) (called "Osprey"). I need sails, cash waiting. we have spent a weekend on her, plenty of room inside(I am 6'3 tall. good looking yacht with a green hull. any info on her, or sails please contact...

for a small sailing boat she sails really well and looks the part in and out of the water.I have now had 2 sailing seasons on the moray coast in a variety of winds and sea conditions. Most have been very satisfying but on one occasion i was caught out force5/6 against the wind and tide not an enjoyable experience, did not feel in controll,for once but learned a lot.About to start a new season and can,t wait to get out and put her through her paces. see you afloat

Inexpensive. Bilge keeler dries comfortably. Better as a day boat than a weekender. Would be good with an inboard diesel engine. Do they make one that fits?
